Full story
We’re thrilled to share that the 2024/25 Whittington Health’s Winter Vaccination Programme has hit an incredible milestone - on Friday, we administered our 5,000th COVID vaccine!
This milestone came just in time, as Friday marked the final day of COVID vaccinations for this winter.
Our team has been working tirelessly to protect staff and eligible community members from flu and COVID, both of which can cause serious illness and put pressure on NHS services.
The Whittington Health Vaccination team operate from Whittington Hospital’s Jenner Building, named after Edward Jenner, pioneer of the world’s first vaccine. As well has having this static base, they also run a mobile clinic, bringing vaccines directly to those who need them most.
From hostels and supported living homes to elderly care facilities, they’re ensuring access for vulnerable individuals who may struggle to visit a hospital or GP.
The team are still offering the flu vaccine to any eligible member of the public, so if you have not yet gotten your jab, please feel free to drop by the clinic, no appointment necessary.
A huge thank you to our incredible vaccinators and congratulations on the 5,000th vaccine!
